My sister and husband enjoyed a great stay at Pawarit's place for 5 days. The place is in a great location, with a variety of eateries, street food vendors and a couple of bars on the doorstep of Soi 8. This side-street (soi) joins the vibrant street of Suan Plu, which has a greater variety of cafe's, restaurants and small shops, massage parlours etc. Parawat's place itself is a nice, relaxed, but well-maintained building, with the bonus of a very pleasant roof terrace and balconies in a number of rooms. The rooms are rather basic in terms of fixtures and fittings, but with comfortable beds, plenty of light and good wi-fi they offer exceptional value for the price. For those unfamiliar with this extremely nice area, the relatively cheap price for such a great location is largely due to the longer distance to a skytrain (BTS) or Metro (MRT) station, which is around 1.5km in both cases. This is easily overcome by taking a songthaew (unregulated people-carrying trucks, which all the locals use, and only 8 Baht per trip!), or motorbike taxi (40 Baht), or taxi (60 Baht) to either Sala Daeng (skytrain) or Lumphini Park (metro) station. Parawat communicated very well and sent a timely message containing all required info (such as the codes for the entry gate and front door and wi-fi) prior to checking-in. For the price, I would highly recommend this charming and unassuming, yet well-located spot for an inexpensive extended stay in Bangkok.
